Ingredients:
- 8 oz linguine pasta
- 1 lb shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 2 leeks, thinly sliced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 lemon, zested and juiced
- 1/4 cup white wine
- 1/4 cup chicken broth
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions:
Follow the directions on the package to cook the linguine until it is al dente
Remove the water and set it aside
Warm up the olive oil in a big pan over medium-low heat
It will take about two to three minutes on each side for the shrimp to turn pink after you add them
Take the shrimp out of the pan and set it aside
Over medium heat, melt the butter in the same pan
It will take about 34 minutes of cooking after adding the minced garlic and sliced leeks
Use white wine to clean out the pan and scrape up any browned bits on the bottom
It will take about two minutes of cooking until the wine is half gone
Add the lemon juice, zest, and chicken broth and mix well
Set the heat to low and cook for two to three minutes
For about two minutes, stir the heavy cream into the pan until the sauce is smooth and hot all the way through
Add the cooked shrimp back to the pan and toss them around to coat them in the sauce
Add pepper and salt to taste
Toss the cooked linguine with the shrimp and sauce in the pan after you add it
Serve hot with fresh parsley on top
Have fun with your tasty Shrimp Lemon-Leek Linguine
